60. The Captain and the Engineer: The Tenuous Hold (Damien’s Perspective)

I know I was only supposed to be gone for 2 weeks. During the family reunion, everything was splendid! All attention was on me. I mean, as it should be, am I right? Things just ended up going so well, I decided to extend it for another 2 weeks. I wrote to Vincent and let him know of the extension. Naturally, he assured me it was completely fine and to enjoy myself. Oh, believe me, I certainly did. I got to meet up with some old friends and we, uh… heh… we had fun running around and getting up to our old tricks and shenanigans. Ah, it was spectacular to be back home.
Plus… it’d give Vincent a chance to see what life is like without me. Knowing him, he spent the whole time either holed up in one place or another and being his brooding self. I mean, everyone knows that Vincent only REALLY comes out of his shell when I’m around. Nevermind that annoying Aiden. …..okay, annoying is putting it lightly. I cannot stand the boy. I won’t even give him the decency of calling him a man. I’ve seen how his eyes linger on Vincent a little too long, how he blushes when Vincent notices something he does or takes interest in one of his stupid little toy projects. What’s so interesting about those anyways? What purpose do they serve? They’re childish playthings. I’m confident that sooner rather than later, Vincent is going to grow weary of his antics and everything will go back to the way it should be…
Especially now that I’m back home! Vincent is nearly ready to go up in the airship for a fun little ride around. We’re not returning to work just yet. But I can feel the anticipation winding up in him and myself! Ah, and the masquerade is in 2 weeks! Vincent must attend mandatorily but I’ll be there to help ease the burden of society on him. I’ll be sure to dress my best to impress… him, of course. When he sees me, he won’t be able to take his eyes off of me.
Vincent summoned me today. It wasn’t like his usual summons, though… Typically, he asks me to come to his flat, but today he asked me to come to his office. It’s a bit of a pain in the arse, but at least I’ll get to see him today, remind him of just how much he missed me…….
That’s what I felt and thought until I walked into Vincent’s office and what do I see? Red. I see red. I swear, I can feel the vein in my temple about to explode and my heart is pounding. Vincent and Aiden… are dancing? And laughing? Did Vincent not miss me at all? Did he even think of me at all?! WHY IS THAT BASTARD TOUCHING MY VINCENT?! …..keep calm. Maintain composure. Smile. Don’t let them see how much this bothers me. Pretend. Deep breath. ……..one way or another, Aiden needs to go.
